NINA SIMONE – Let It All Out: Selected Singles 1961-1972 – 2LP – Vinyl [FEB 6]

Description

2LP – Black Vinyl.

Icon is an overused word when it comes to describing singers and musicians, but when it comes to Nina Simone there are few artists that the word describes more accurately. The High Priestess Of Soul is surely one of the most iconic singers of the 20th century, and one whose fame and acclaim stretches far beyond conventional black American music circles.

Nina Simone has featured on Ace and Kent CDs before but this is the first time shes had one all to herself. Let It All Out is the first and only Nina Simone collection to draw repertoire from every label she recorded for between the late 1950s to the late 1970s.
Not a traditional Best Of or Greatest Hits package (although the performances included here ARE among her very best, and do include most of her Greatest Hits!) it is a singles collection that presents Nina Simones soul and R&B slanted 45s in chronological order. Invariably they are the definitive versions of the songs, whether she recorded the original versions or not.
